GOING: S(6)

CASINO RSM GROUP BENCHMARK 50 HANDICAP 1400m

Track: Soft 6   Rain (Max: 24)   Rail: True .  

Vizstar to take charge ahead of Master Of Rewards at a strong tempo. GAMING (2) is yet to find the winners' list this time in work but has three placings from six appearances this preparation, finishing 0.6 lengths away in third most recently over 1315m at Ballina. Ready to find winning form. WE DO REMEMBER (8) came from well back on the turn and hit the line strongly to score over 1310m at Ballina last time out. Expected to be there at the business end. PINETO LAD (5) was out of the money when resuming two runs back then again missed the frame last start when he was never in contention over 1310m at Ballina, beaten 1.75 lengths into fifth. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. UNIQUE ELLE (12) excellent return from the lengthy break with a plugging second over 1021m at Murwillumbah. Fitter now and gets a much better set-up. ANDROS (3) in career best form and not to be underestimated. SUGGESTED PLAY: Ready to get off the mark with the claim.
